Always on the move.

The Accent is everything you could ask for in a small, yet highly energetic car. Put yourself in the driver’s seat and get ready to have the style, comfort and technology of the Accent to set your world in motion.

Sleek and stylish design.

Exterior features.

Bold new front grille.

Accent’s new look features a mesh-style upper grille with a dark chrome surround that is complimented by a matching lower grille, the two separated by the prominent bumper. The restyle enhancing the car’s bold sportiness and youthful image.

New headlight bezel colour.

The white bezel strip at the upper edge of each headlight now features a metallic silver finish to give a more premium look.

Interior features.

Steering wheel mounted controls.

All the most used controls are now at your fingertips including audio and cruise control as standard, so you can enjoy the in-car ambience, while staying in complete control of the car.

Shades at the ready.

No more sitting on, losing or scratching your sunglasses. The convenient overhead storage compartment helps keep your sunnies safe – and handy for when the weather takes a sudden turn for the brighter.

Power windows.

Power windows (front and rear), with a one touch window ‘up & down’ function for the driver’s window.

Spacious boot.

The Accent is everything you could ask for in a small, yet energetic car. With a spacious boot that is 370L in a hatch and 465L in a sedan.

In-car infotainment.

Tech features.

5” touchscreen with Apple CarPlay®.

Never miss a call or a beat with Apple CarPlay®. The 5” multimedia touch screen supports key iPhone features you need to stay tuned and connected while on the road.

UAX/USB audio input with iPod compatibility.

With smartphone/MP3 connectivity, you get to choose your favourite driving tracks, and Bluetooth™ technology lets you audio stream, as well as make hands-free calls.

The four-speaker audio system gives you full control of your iPod® via the USB port, allowing you to use the standard cable supplied with your iPod® and take your tunes with you.

Keyless entry.

In addition to remote keyless entry, Accent offers extra personal security with the Hyundai Active Locking Operation (HALO) system, which locks all the doors when driving, and unlocks them once the key is removed from the ignition.

Driven by fun.

The Accent now comes with a more powerful 1.6L GDi Gamma engine, replacing the 1.4L MPi Kappa engine. Both the Accent hatch and sedan are available with your choice of a 6 speed manual or automatic transmission.

Fuel-efficient power.

Be economic with a combined fuel consumption is a low 6.3L/100km (manual) and 6.6L/100km (automatic).

All engines use dual continuously variable valve timing (D-CVVT) to deliver the precise air-fuel mixture required to meet engine demands and minimise fuel consumption. This, coupled with an aerodynamic body, adds up to a remarkable performance.

Locally tested, locally tuned.

The Accent’s suspension and steering has been specifically tuned to meet Australia’s unique road conditions. The long wheelbase of the new Accent contributes to a smooth ride with enhanced stability, while the sealing and sound muffling materials ensure a quiet, refined drive.

Safety first.

TWe’ve designed the Accent to achieve a maximum 5-star ANCAP safety rating, with 6 airbags and a range of active safety technologies.

Safety features.

5-star ANCAP safety rating.

At Hyundai, there are no compromises when it comes to safety. All our vehicles are created using the most advanced technology to ensure passengers get the optimum protection in any situation. Given the comprehensive active and passive safety features that come as standard – including 6 airbags – it’s no surprise that Accent has been given the maximum 5-Star ANCAP safety rating.

All-round protection.

Peace of mind also comes as standard in the accent. The six-airbag system consists of driver and front passenger side thorax airbags, as well as curtain airbags for front and rear seat passengers. Overseas model shown.

High-tensile Aussie steel.

Look beyond outer beauty of the Accent and you’ll find a heart of steel. High-tensile Australian steel. Smashed and battered in thousands of tests to ensure you and your passengers will be protected in the event of a real crash.

Intelligent braking.

The ABS with EBD helps prevent the brakes locking up and optimises pressure between the front and rear wheels. In emergencies, the BAS assesses how fast the brake pedal is pressed then instantly applies maximum force, helping short braking distances. Image shown is for illustration only.

Vehicle Stability Management System (VSM).

You could be driving along happily, when, all of a sudden, the vehicle starts to skid away from your intended direction. VSM is designed to detect this and apply corrective steering pressure to help you regain control.
